'Father, that girl is not corrupted.'
Igni stated.
"Huh…?"
His words came out as a surprise to Kael.
'Did he just… call her a girl…?'
After all, this was the first time Igni referred to someone other than him as a… living being?
All this while, Igni referred to everyone he met as a 'thing', even the King was no exception to this.
It was almost as if he thought of every other human to be beneath him. Kael found this concerning, but he had read about the Dragon Pride, even Veylara said it was normal for Dragons to have such pride, so he didn't pay much attention to this.
But now…
Igni called Lavinia 'girl', it was almost as if he was acknowledging her.
"How are you so sure?"
Kael questioned with a frown on his face.
Even if he ignored how Igni seemed to have acknowledged Lavinia, the very fact that he said she wasn't corrupted confused him as well.
